CUTTING TO LENGTH

CURING RACK

UNCURED BLOCK TRANSFER

BLOCK LIFTING SYSTEMS

BLOCK HANDLING EQUIPMENT

Through development of new cutting technology and automation methods using software solutions, we meet the high demands of precision foam production.

In addition to the cutting machines, a complete plant includes various systems for material block transport (block lift systems) that we build in optional manual radio controlled or fully automatic versions. Shuttle systems or scissor lift tables carry out the transfer of sheet stacks between different cutting machines. In addition to block wagons and block printing devices, we also offer tailor-made rack systems for efficient storage of (long) blocks upon completion of foam production or cutting to length.

Bäumer fully automated systems for every area of application

In the Plant Engineering category you will find a selection of the machines we offer and the foam processing system components that we use to design cutting and foam operations. See our wide product range and the high quality of our systems for yourself.

THE ADVANTAGE YOUR TECHNICAL PROGRESS FOR “STREAMLINED PRODUCTION”

CONTROL SYSTEM INNOVATIVE INTERLINKING OF INDIVIDUAL CONTROL SYSTEM

Effective use of raw materials means less waste: the curing rack allows you to store and cure large quantities of long blocks (up to 120 mm long) after foaming without having to cut them immediately into short blocks. On completion of the curing process, you can cut the foam exactly to the required lengths.

Less space required thanks to optimum space utilization: the long blocks are stored in multi-tier racks during the curing process and before further processing. They require less floor space as they are stacked one above the other.

The plant control systems are based on a modular design. Overall production is generally divided into the following sections:

9 ABLG-1 cut-to-length machine up to conveyor in curing rack

9 Curing rack with distributor gantry

9 Interim storage with block lifting system

9 Short block production (cutting to length, trimming)

9 Processing (e.g. horizontal splitting machines, contour cutting machines)

Each of the above plant sections is equipped with its own control system. The individual systems communicate with each other via Ethernet links. The block data are also managed in the control system such that the availability of the different block types and their storage location in the system are known at all times. An additional VPN link (Virtual Private Network) for remote maintenance/remote diagnosis allows Bäumer fast access to the corresponding control system should problems occur. Siemens automation components are used in our control systems. We recognize the importance of the use of ultramodern state-of-the-art control technology.

Automated control system for faster production flow with reduced manpower: manage the greater number of blocks and different qualities in the curing rack and in the block lifting bay without manual intervention.

Efficient further processing ensured by complete concept: the overall control system combines all production units integrated in the plant to create a complete customer-specific entity. After storing the foam, the long blocks can be further processed with the aid of the automated control system and subsequent machines.

102 103

LONGBLOCKRACK SYSTEM

9 Rack for storing foam blocks after the foaming process as reaction storage and after cutting to length

9 For high production volumes, investment in long block engineering is recommended

9 To be able to carry out this task in a efficient manner, our product range includes storage rack systems for the handling of the raw uncured blocks

9 Turnkey, customized storage systems in lengths of 12 - 120 m

9 Customer-specific number of slide-in modules depends on capacities and annual tonnage

9 Available with semi-automatic or fully automatic control or integrated in a superior control system (POS: Production Ordering System)

9 Optimum handling of fresh blocks, in particular for demanding foams without physical impairment

9 Automatic storage systems allow high productivity and flexibility in production

9 Rack systems can be installed in a hall or, as it is often the case, the steel construction of the storage racks can be used at the same time as carrying construction for a sheet metal sheathing thus considerably reducing the costs for a hall construction

SHORT BLOCKSTORAGE SYSTEM

With manual short block storage, fork-lift trucks pick up the short blocks to store them. At the moment of manual withdrawal, the block data kept up to this point, such as quality, color, foaming date, block dimensions etc. also leave the system. If the blocks are needed at a later point in time for further processing into sheets or contours, the short block as well as the associated block data also have to be fed in again, manually or by bar code.

Avoiding downtimes

The fully automatic short block storage comes immediately after the long block storage and short block cutting. After the cut-off or block trimming machine, the handling system takes the short block and places it in an appropriate storage location in the short block storage, in accordance with its data or according to defined stacking criteria.

The short block storage is followed by the automatic infeed to the further processing cutting machine. The cutting program is loaded automatically together with the POS software.

Advantages of the short block storage at a glance:

9 Automatic collection, maintenance and forwarding of all block data in the system, from foaming to the finished cut part

9 Preprogrammed storage logic: blocks are stacked automatically on the basis of their dimensions and other properties such as hardness, for example small on large and soft on hard. The maximum stacking height is observed, and the shortest paths possible are selected for optimum efficiency

9 Single blocks as well as block packages with 2 blocks can be processed in one input or output operation

9 Option of output of a complete storage status report, and sorting of the block stock according to search criteria like block type or production date

9 Technical data of the block storage system, such as maximum stacking height, total capacity, gripper width etc. can optionally be adjusted to meet customers‘ needs

9 The short block storage / short block gripper is specially intended to minimize downtimes in the processing of short blocks

9 Automated short block storage combines the automated process between long block handling and packaging

9 Short block storage systems in conjunction with POS >> short blocks can be put into storage with an assigned cutting program. Then automatic delivery to the further processing machine, with automatic loading of the cutting program

9 Automatic storage according to stacking criteria

9 Merging of 2 short blocks on one stacking location

... PORTAL TYPE

9 Portal block lifting systems are used where the crane rails are installed on the hall floor

9 Similar to bridge cranes, portal cranes generally cover smaller track widths (span widths) up to approx. 20 m

9 If possible from the structural point of view, a lifting system in bridge construction is to be preferred to the version with a portal as it provides a better utilization of the space and thus storage capacity

BLOCK GRIPPERS

9 Gripping device is a block gripper specially developed for the transport of foam blocks

9 Also available in a special design as a fresh block gripper

9 For the transport of 60 m blocks, 2 block grippers per block are used
